Popis: Neope goschkevitschii and Lethe sicelis are endemic Satyrinae butterflies in mainland Japan, which belongs to the Palearctic realm. In this study, we determined the mitochondrial genomes of these two species. The total length of the mitochondrial genome was 15,286 bp and 15,196 bp for N. goschkevitschii and L. sicelis, respectively, and both mitochondrial genomes were extremely AT-rich. Phylogenetic analysis revealed each of these species was closely related to a member of the same genus, respectively.
